Workshops are conducted by skilled facilitors and can be tailored to your unique needs.

Staff workshops

Staff effectiveness and mutual cooperation can be increased and new perspectives generated through IET workshops, which can be customized to last 2, 3 or 5 days. There will be 3 sessions per day, each lasting 2 hours. These workshops will include issues such as "The Philosophy of CAS", "Good Practice", "Team Work", "Thinking outside the Box", "We are the Role Models" and more. Workshops are conducted by experienced educators and can be customised to your specific requirements.

CAS Evaluation

The International Baccalaureate program places considerable emphasis on the "CAS" - Creativity, Action & Service" – components of its programs. The benefits of a well run CAS program are immeasurable in the enriching of IB students. India Educational Tours can help your institution assess the degree of compliance with the requirements of the International Baccalaureate Organization regarding CAS programs and help you economically build an enriched and enriching series of programs for your school.

Consultations on Curriculum building

Schools often have a difficult time designing curriculum to satisfy the diverse needs of their students, especially in areas that include non-traditional educational components. Despite a progressive outlook, many schools find it difficult to find the budget to maintain an effective "Social Awareness" department. India Educational Tours personnel have extensive experience in developing socially responsible curricula and will be able to help your institution to build a "Social Awareness" Department suited to your situation and budget.

Students
Student on IET guided field trips have an excellent learning experience while fulfilling CAS requirements. Reports and journals written by students can be used in school magazines and other educational material. Students can hold workshops for others to pass on their actual hands on experiences in a meaningful way. Students interact with compassionate professionals, leaders and decision makers as they begin to understand that they can "learn" from those they "help".

Staff
Staff members do not have to struggle with the logistics of organizing a field trip, yet they will be deeply involved throughout and thus lend a sense of continuity with the school aims. There is considerable bonding between students and staff on these trips.
In the future, staff will be able to develop related projects in their institutions and promote a compassionate perspective to the society around the institution. IB staff will gain a new understanding of how to implement the philosophy of CAS and will benefit from the universal values the IB program promotes.

Schools
Institutions can now out source their field trips, saving valuable resources for other projects while still providing a rewarding and educational experience for their students. Parents are particularly impressed with the positive impact such trips have had on students in the past. The school will be better able to develop cross-cultural awareness and can build worthwhile community projects locally, based on skills learned on the field trips. Overall the school can attract more socially aware staff and students and can use field trip material for presentation at NESA conferences.
